Engaging Encounters - Readings from Ernst Eisenmayer’s unpublished writings

Thursday 23 February 2012, 7.00pm | Austrian Cultural Forum London

Ernst Eisenmayer’s vivid writings offer a fascinating insight into the chance meetings and friendships forged during internment on the Isle of Man and his early years in London as an artist. The series of short narratives recall his involvement with the Austrian Centre, conversations with Oskar Kokoschka in his Park Lane studio and Eisenmayer's passion for the metropolis and its inhabitants.

This event is part of the exhibition Ernst Eisenmayer: Art Beyond Exile.

The exhibition will travel to the Sayle Gallery, Douglas, Isle of Man where it will be on view from 5 April - 13 May 2012
